Mahalini’s creative practice, centered in Indonesia, unfolds across a catalogue of recorded work that embraces range and uncategorizable creative impulses, with every credited entry contributing to the full scope of her artistic output. Putar Waktu stands as one such entry, positioned in her official catalogue as a distinct sound that carries the creative throughline of all the work Mahalini has released under her own name. Classified under Music/Other, the work rejects the narrow genre labels that often pigeonhole recorded music into pre-existing commercial or critical silos, a framing that lets it exist on its own creative terms rather than being forced to align with the unspoken expectations that come with common genre classifications that structure most music catalogues.
